Toms story.

I can remember it so clearly even though it all happened really quickly. It was Monday
evening, about 9.30. 1 was sitting in my room watching television. My mum was out,
so I was alone in the house.

All of a sudden, the walls of the house began to.. .shake! I heard a deafening roar,
and it sounded as if something was coming so close to the house it was going to crash
through the wall! I dont know what was shaking more - the house, or me...with fright!

I looked out the window and a fighter jet flew past so low it мейд the windows rattle.
I really thought it was going to crash into the house.

After the plane had passed, I was still shaking with fright. Strangely, though, I felt really
excited too and I thought about going outside to see what was happening. My curiosity
got the better of my fear and I ran out into the rain.

I saw something unreal. The plane was chasing a ball of dazzling white light moving
across the sky. The light didnt flash. It was moving incredibly fast, weaving around
so that the plane could hardly keep up. Then, they both disappeared in the dark.

What was it I saw? Was this a close encounter with something alien? The whole thing
only lasted a couple of minutes. Could it really be a plane chasing a UFO? But why
else would a fighter plane be flying at night in the rain?

I always thought that people were imagining things when they reported seeing
strange bright lights in the sky and UFOs, but Ive never seen anything like that before.
